Genome sequence of Mycobacterium massiliense M18, isolated from a lymph node biopsy specimen

J Bacteriol. 2012 Aug;194(15):4125. doi: 10.1128/JB.00712-12.

Abstract

Mycobacterium massiliense is a rapidly growing mycobacterial species. The pathogenicity of this subspecies is not well known. We report here the annotated genome sequence of M. massiliense strain M18, which was isolated from a lymph node biopsy specimen from a Malaysian patient suspected of having tuberculous cervical lymphadenitis.
